I made the mistake of upgrading to El Capitan too hastily today and experienced the same corruption when using OpenCL acceleration. What saved me was installing the latest CUDA driver from Nvidia and then switching to CUDA acceleration in Premiere project settings. That seemed to work, which is strange as before OpenCL was the stable one while CUDA gave me all kinds of problems.

So I updated to OS X El Capitan after reading it was safe to do so. And everything seems to work fine, except that my program bus looks like this for everything, but only when paused. When playing it's all fine and I am right now exporting the project to see if everything is good on that side; (see pic)
 
Anyone else having any kind of problem with it?

I wish I had 900ft... I have only two rolls of Velvia left right now

"Anyone who sets out to shoot a film on an iPhone rather than a proper camera is simply doing it because they are either very silly or want to attract publicity for their film. Proper cameras that shoot wonderful video are so bloody cheap these days, there is no excuse. Shooting video properly with an iPhone is a right pain in the bum."

This is in fashion nowadays for camera reviewers.
Philip Bloom also wore lipstick as he presented the Sony A7s...

I'll post back when i have more info, I bet the card will be fine in the C100, those cameras still record if you push a potato into the SD slot
Of my SD cards that meet the specs Sony states are needed for 4k and 100p, 4 out of 7 actually work. That's not a great hit rate.

It has worked for me a lot of times!!!
 
Those are good prices for commercial work. Inazuma told us that he is helping a friend who is working on a long term documentary...

an abstract point:
never be afraid to say
"Whats your budget?"
just look em right in the eye, and say that, and smile
next one who talks loses lol

It's a new dawn... and I'm...

hi all,
Just interested to get some opinions.
so far we've had once piece of footage, I can't find a way to embed it so here it is on another blog: http://www.newsshooter.com/2015/06/13/new-footage-from-the-blackmagic-ursa-mini-4-6k/
the dynamic range and skin tones look lovely as does resolution, footage seems jolly good.
I am however worried about the camera itself, as someone who once had a preorder down on an earlier model and cancelled as all sorts of delays happened and problems arose once when the camera was out there.
i also have a friend whose camera broke on day one on a shoot, leaving him to use a backup he had luckily brought in the form of a GH2 (remember those?;)
as such I can't bring myself to preorder, despite lovely footage and a low price I still feel it's a... Gamble. Which is sad. I'd like to be more trusting but still... This is real money and real work...
is anyone out there with more courage than I taking the plunge? If so let us know!
 
 

The video quality has improved tremendously. I would love to see a face-off between this and the 200Mbps Samsung S6 monster. 

"X-Rite ColorTRUE Color Management for iPads, Tablets, Smartphones"

Remember hearing ipad colour accuracy was pretty darn good - This article is a good read (and a few years old)
https://www.fxphd.com/blog/just-how-good-is-the-ipads-color/
Definitely good enough as a mobile client review method to showcase corrected rushes and temp grades. 

i have a 17-55 2.8/is that i bought used in near perfect condition for $500; great lens, great value. resolving power is competitive with much more expensive canon glass. read a lot about dust issues with this lens, havent had any. would recommend 

I just shot these 2 web promos with the C100mII and 17-55.

theres nothing "retro" inherent to the look of 5d3 raw video
quite the contrary: it is a unique look which is decidedly contemporary

I used used the RX10 ii on one paid shoot so far.
it didn't shut down through overheating but I noticed some incredibly noisey footage in HFR mode, which I assume was due to heat build up from me running about shooting at all kinds of frame rates. I also noticed the camera get warm.
indeed you can't use full brightness with HFR, 4K high bitrate or 100p, which I assumed was due to drain on the battery being too great. But perhaps it's a heat issue too?
Sony are very preoccupied with size, and unfortunately they will continue to invite these problems unless they make larger bodies with better heat dissipation, or think of some clever method for cooling.
the C100 was fine all shoot, but it only does 1080 25p and has a fan!!

buy a 50d for very around 150 bucks on ebay and play around with the raw workflow, if you like it get the 5d mark 3 and shoot full hd raw with it.

Sorry, this is more like it..
 
 

Having to go to the REDuser forum for info makes me cry!
So many posts along the lines of "C300 mk II D.O.A" and "I would hate to be Sony/Blackmagic/Canon now" ad nauseum.
Whatever you may think of prosumer cams like the C300 and FS7, you can shoot all day on a couple of batteries and some cheap(er) media. I like REDs cameras, but I really detest that place.

for me color trumps everything, and the DEEP rich color from 5d3 raw is unparalleled; ive never seen video from ANY camera that matches it in that regard – naturalistic yet amazingly beautiful
thats awesome hmcindle that clip looks official. how did you find the reliability of ml on set? any issues to be aware of? assuming its not april fools day that is lol
